Dance-athon

Today was the highly anticipated dance-athon. It was a fundraiser for the Heart and Stroke Foundation. Our school raised over $9000 --- WOW!!  What a great donation to Heart and Stroke.  The sponsors of this event provided a prize for the top fundraiser in the school (who raised over $800 himself) and a few random draws for anyone who had brought in donations. Everyone received a free t-shirt, compliments of the event sponsors. Thank you to everyone who brought in donations for this worthy cause.

This morning we were painting with watercolours. It is the first step in one of the art projects we are doing.

At centre time today, this student starting connecting blocks together in groups of 10. Then she discovered if she had 3 groups of 10, she could easily and quickly count by tens to  know she had 30 blocks--- without counting every single block. This then led her to decide she could quickly count 100 blocks by making more groups of 10 and counting by tens.  When she had 10 groups of 10---- she knew she had 100 blocks!  WOW!
